Electronic funds transfer (EFT)

Most tax payments can also be made electronically via our free Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) program. This type of payment comes directly out of your bank account, which means you don’t have to submit a payment through our website or by mail.

EFT payments go through an electronic system called the Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network. This service is free to use, but you must apply to join the program.

Please refer to the EFT-ACH user’s manual for an overview of the EFT-ACH program, including a description of how it works and instructions on how to make payments.

Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) payment types

There are two different types of ACH payments available. Read the EFT-ACH user’s manual to see which is appropriate for you. Once you’ve decided, you’ll need to fill out and return the appropriate application.
